The 265 ½ review of the Pontus II. Just remarkable. One of the best! Lots of R2R Goodness!

Thanks to icipher of the ABX Audiophile community for lending me this unit for review. What an great unit. Sounds amazing, is built like a vault and put a smile on my face. Is there anything better than that?
